Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc

At its core, Danganronpa is a melting pot of various philosophical puzzles that pulls together in such a way that it connected with me on a very deep, very real level. Without giving the ending away, the ultimate fate of all the characters (including Monokuma) left me more than a little shaken, and any game that's able to connect with me at that kind of primal level must be worth the investment.

You can leave this high school either as a murderer or as a corpse. The line between friendship and rivalry is blurred. You look into the soul of the characters where hope gets replaced by despair in an instant. This is an excellent morbid surreal whodunit.

Easily one of the most intriguing games I've played in quite some time. It’s as if Persona and Phoenix Wright got together and had a little demon spawn that I didn't want to put down -- no matter how disturbing it can be at times.

The niche this mad gun’s aimed at should get this immediately. Everyone else: run. [April 2014, p81]

Don’t let the name or presentation put you off: this is an impressive piece of interactive storytelling that gets more right than most other games with 10 times its budget.

With its twisted tale of murder and high school gone wrong, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc weaves a devilishly addictive tale you'll want to see through to the end.

It's a good idea from NIS America to widen access to visual novels out of Japan, as long as they make good decisions. And they don't. The publisher has maybe chosen something too spooky for the Western players. Only translated in English, DanganRonpa : Trigger Happy Havoc definitely forgets some who don't want to play 30 hours like that. The others could be interested in the crazy story but it's far too slow. Players have to read lines and lines of discussion before reaching, at last, a gameplay scene. And don't expect the visuals, in bad taste, to enhanced this not so good assessment.

I don't remember the last time I was so intrigued and captivated by a VN, always curious about what will happen, the mystery and constant tension keeping me on my toes while a dark feeling lingers throughout the entire story. This is by no means a normal VN, it has more gameplay than many non-VN games, which was shocking to see. The detective gameplay, always asking yourself what is actually going on, the character development of some really well-done characters with amazing artwork, the really good dialogue, exploration, and the many other gameplay elements all together create one of the best experiences I've had in years.

Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is weird, stylish, and hard to put down. A mix of murder mystery, over-the-top anime drama, and twisted humor that somehow works. The vibe is great, the cast is (mostly) lovable, and there’s just enough comedy to keep the darker moments from feeling too heavy. The music hits at the right times, and the Class Trials are snappy and fun to follow. But yeah, it’s not perfect. The flat 2D cutouts in exploration look dated, a few characters are straight-up annoying, and the rhythm minigame in trials is more tedious than tense. The game holds your hand a bit too much during trials, and social interactions between cases feel shallow. Still, it’s a fun, stylish ride with plenty of charm. If you’re into murder mysteries with a bizarre twist, it’s worth your time—even if you’ll roll your eyes at some parts.

Absolutely bonkers from start to finish. The mystery solving is pretty fun. Soundtrack full of bangers. Sometimes crosses a certain line of taste and has a very particular sense of humor. If you can get on its wavelength, you won't regret it.

I actually hate the first Danganronpa game, and I consider the anime to be the superior version to watch simply because it gets rid of a lot of the fluff that this game has. Sure, you don't really get the character interactions, but largely I consider the 1st cast of characters to be the weakest of the bunch, and honestly kinda not worth your time.Danganronpa has a super interesting premise of a killing game in which a number of contestants compete to see who can get away with murder. The problem with the first game is that the cast of characters and number of cases that are interesting are super minimal and tend to drag on for way too long. This doesn't helped when the final case is honestly just a super long exposition dump that kinda starts midway through the game till the finish. Add together that only half the cases are mildly interesting, and most of which don't have an actual good pay off led me to kinda hate the first game all the more.What is perhaps more annoying though, is that you kinda just end up growing attached to some of the characters and get invested to see who lives or dies, and while that design is purposeful, the execution (ironically) is not. Not to say that victims and killers don't get a fair spotlight, but if you don't do free time events or choose the wrong characters to get to know you end up with a limited amount of info on all the characters save for Kirigiri. I do have to name drop Kirigiri as a cast member, as she gets the lion's share of character development throughout the game, and it's honestly kinda jarring once you look at how much screen time other characters get. Add this fact with some of the other characters you see throughout the end not even getting a characterization kinda makes it all the more hurtful to realize just how wasteful the first Danganronpa is with it's cast of **** writing isn't the only problem with this game though, as the class trials honestly have way way too much filler to really be regard as important, and would have been better to streamline. I shouldn't have to play hangman or time buttons to get the truth out, and the constant breaking of flow from conversation just weakens the pacing all the more.Really I'm just kinda frustrated at what the original Danganronpa could have been, and how it failed to meet with my expectations that the anime had already shown me. While I do certainly like the series, I truly believe that the anime is simply a better experience as it keeps better pacing and gets rid of a lot of unnecessary fluff. Danganronpa is a good series, but the starting point is just too rough to recommend off hand.

Es un juego bastante aburrido para lo que cuesta, lojugué ennintendo swtich light y iba a 20fps
